 Hi All,I would like an external keyboard connected to my device for writing text messages, e-mails or even using Mobile Word. Does anyone know where I can get a good, value for money and compactable, 63 full size key bluetooth keyboard? -------------------- Mr D Alom

Looks very similar to the BT keyboard I bought for my C500 years ago - never used it but found it the other day and tried it with my Ameo - worked fine so no reason it shouldn't with a kaiser.

i don't think theres any realreason why it shouldn't work on the kaiser. as far as i know, the drivers for bluetooth keyboards are the same across windows mobile devices. as long as the kaiser supports the Bluetooth HID profile (assuming this is whjat the keyboard uses),l then you should be okay, as its a generic profile.

I always fancied one of these http://www.amazon.co.uk/Celluon-CL800BT-Bl...d/dp/B000ESNE8S but the price never seems to have dropped and I'm not sure they'd work with a WinMo device so I've never bothered.

QUOTE(Mr Alom @ Jun 30 2008, 03:13) Thanks, I've been using that keyboard for the last 3 months and I'm having no problems. I have an iGo Stowaway bluetooth keyboard which I use with my HTC Touch Dual. It worked fine on my Loox 720 but gave me many problems with the Touch Dual until I worked out the following sequence: Put Keyboard into ABC mode, not XT9 Ensure "Keyboard" is selected as on screen input method AND is present on the bottom of the screen. If I don't do this, I end up with all sorts of weird characters and auto-corrections! Does this happen on the Vario III? |
